Here's hoping we see some familiar guest characters, like Shang Chi or Luke Cage or Danny Rand or Misty Knight or Robbie Baldwin or Angelica Jones or some cold case that leads them to Jim Hammond as seen at the 1940s Stark Expo.

There's already much speculation that the guy jumping out of the building maybe Luke Cage. J. August Richards' character still hasnt been revealed so people are guessing thats his character. While it could be a whole new character all together, i doubt it considering what Marvel/Disney is trying to with this "universe"

Hey I'll watch. This is the first tv show to interest me since Lost ended. At least we can be pretty sure the good guys won't be methhead child-raping corrupt cops who make me want to hang myself after watching the first episode.

due to the backing and having Wheldon watching over it. It is going to be safe for awhile. It's not heroes (thank god!), this is a series that has an instant fan base and I don't think they will let their fans down!

Used to be: "Nobody stays dead except Bucky, Uncle Ben, and Jason Todd". So we should probably expect Uncle Ben back sometime too.

That would practically require rebooting Spidey's entire universe, undermining years of motivation and character development, not to mention the continuity nightmare. They'd never do that to a property as valuable as Spiderman.

I didn't read to much into this series other than it was greenlit a few days ago, but what if it takes place prior to Coulson dying in the Avengers movie? It already seemed like Coulson was running around prior to the Avengers Initiative.

Pretty much this; Whedon knows there are high expectations for this series as well as people hoping this is not Heroes 2.0.
